Most modern file systems use 64-bit inode numbers, while i_ino sadly
still is only an ino_t that can be 32-bits wide.  So we'll either need
an ugly fs hook here, or maybe convince Linus that it finally is time
for a 64-bit i_ino (which would also clean up a lot of mess in the
file systems and this constant source of confusion).
